Good news: ChatGPT is pointing a lot of people toward Soundslice.

Bad news: It's telling people Soundslice has a feature that doesn't actually exist.

Here's my story about how we added a feature purely because ChatGPT was telling people it existed.

They cannot constitutionally do this, but also, they cannot physically do this.

Hey, can I share some historical context with you about “race-baiter” Ebrahim Rasool?

When I see a South African who’s a little older, I always check what they were doing before 1990. 🧐

Found something surprising: As a boy, Rasool and his family were expelled from District Six.

Europe has to pay more for its own defence.

One debate is whether they should "Buy European" weapons or buy them from America or other allies.

One really BAD statistic is polluting the debate: that the EU buys 80% of its weapons from overseas. Ursula von der Leyen repeated it today. It's wrong. 🧵

Folks at MIT Sloan looked at multiple studies of return to office (RTO) mandates & found they are lose-lose-lose. No reward from Wall Street for “getting tough,” an actual decrease in productivity & revenue, and loss of top talent. youtu.be/4ec_yZCWOCY...
RTO Mandates: Hard Truths for Leaders
After Amazon imposed a strict return-to-office policy that takes effect in January 2025, other companies followed suit.

Return-to-office (RTO) mandates lead to abnormally high employee turnover, especially for female/more senior/more skilled employees.

It also takes significantly longer to fill these job vacancies after RTO mandates.
